Matter of Jonathan Javier YAJURE HURTADO, Respondent Decided September 5, 2025 U.S. Department of Justice Executive Office for Immigration Review Board of Immigration Appeals Based on the plain language of section 235(b)(2)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A) (2018), Immigration Judges lack authority to hear bond requests or to grant bond to aliens who are present in the United States without admission.

🚨NEW: Reversing *generations* of practice, the Board of Immigration Appeals gives ICE exactly what it demanded, ruling that any undocumented immigrant who entered illegally is categorically ineligible for release from detention on bond — expanding mandatory detention by millions of people.

You are the company you keep.

Newly uncovered footage shows Trump and Epstein together. Photos confirm Epstein attended Trump’s 1993 wedding to Marla Maples. Not widely known.

When CNN asked Trump about it, he said, “You’ve got to be kidding me,” then hung up after calling them “fake news”.

Will the US negativity to immigration reverse now?

Quite likely! Folks forget immigration backlash works both ways. Pro-immigration politics may be unpopular, but so is unnecessarily cruel anti-immigration politics.
